Norwood's # could tip off staff putting him at DE

Why would he be #92 if they were not leaning towards him being an DE. His college number 40 is available, yet he did not get it. Sounds like the coaching staff might want to put him on the line.

Except linebackers can have numbers 90-99...

i have no doubt he's going on the line.

He's listed as a DE/LB on the panthers.com

[CatMan72 4,432]

He's just the right size for a Meeks DE.

Yea, but he could have gotten #40 if he was going to be a pure linebacker..think this shows that the staff is at least considering putting him on the line

there was already a article on panthers.com saying he would be used as a edge rusher from time to time as a DE, but he will be a OLB

he will be hybid lb/de sort of like orakpo who lines up at slb and de at times

Pretty sure I read a quote of Fox saying they were initially having him at SLB.

With Hardy, Brown, Johnson, Brayton & Taylor I have a hard time believing he will migrate to the defensive line, unless we pick up an extra linebacker
